Are there any bands that you've discovered because of Deftones? - maybe they mentioned or recommended them in an interview or maybe it's a band that influenced Deftones and through reading or hearing of their influences you decided to give it a listen?
Only 1 I can think of  - Stef mentioned them a few times in interviews and I would probably never have heard of them if it wasn't for Deftones - Meshuggah!
Really great band - thanks Stef!

From their covers, i became a big fan of Suicidal Tendencies, Depeche Mode and Bad Brains.

The cure, the smiths and everything Maynard James Keenan. I guess you could also say muse because I heard they do bits of deftones songs live and it made me check them out more.

The Smiths, Fugazi and Meshuggah. I  love how each band are very different

Deftones got me into Team Sleep got me into Pinback.

I re-listened to weezer after reading an interview with Chino where he talked quite favorably about them and suddenly it just clicked. I had listened to the blue record a little bit when it came out originally, but I was hardcore into metal at that time, so I could not appreciate it back then.

bohren and der club of gore - they were listed in chino's current top 10 albums in an article a while back, good stuff

The Cure, fucking excellent decision to give them a listen. Them and Deftones are almost always played whenever I listen to my ipod.

Deftones-argentina

Definetively the cure...fan for life. but I think they had a huge impact on making me enjoy depeche mode's music. Then, when I fell in love with the depeche I came back to deftones and started loving songs like Lucky you and that stuff. Also weezer, and thrice (with their cover).
in an indirect extent, they brought wightfourseven on tour with them , and that's how I got to know their music

You head Taproot because of Deftones? I can't imagine Chino saying in an interview how Taproot had changed his life

Oh because Taproot supported Deftones here in UK on the Back to School tour. Please forgive mr
